Awaiting a urgent biopsy appt

Been having lots of symptoms but mainly continuous vaginal bleeding, clots, pain, bloating. 

Dr referred to gynae. finally after 5 months wait had a tel consultation now been referred for an urgent biopsy. It's been over 3 weeks still no appt. Rang to chase and have been told I'm on the waiting list and an appt will be sent as soon as possible :(

Starting to get freaked out now. Got my mum through endometrial cancer 3 years ago & my mind keeps thinking I have the same.

Anyone in similar situation or has been?

  • Hi hope you hear soon. I know the feeling, awaiting biopsy results myself. Had a hyperscopy and fibroid, polyps removed. They said my womb thickness was 11.3 not sure if that's normal or not. Like you had bleeding. I'm postmenopausal. Hope you hear soon. 

  • Hi Lindyloo

    They said my womb size was 11.4mm which he said was enlarged. I didn't pay much attention to the note he gave me yesterday but today I found it in my bag & read it. It says I have something called diffuse adenomyosis. Of course I googled it and first thing it's a precursor to endometrial cancer :cry: I guess that explains why he did a biopsy.

    I'm feeling totally wrecked today. The pain i'm feeling today has kept me in bed all day. I didn't think it would be like this as yesterday after the procedure i didn't feel that bad. Back and stomach feel so sore and I'm very shaky :( 

    Mentally im freaking out knowing my mum had the same symptoms. 2 week wait will be agony. 

  • I know it's hard. Just keep on top of your pain killers and try as much as you can to rest.  Sending my best wishes. Message anytime. 

  • Thanks Lindyloo. I'm making sure I'm taking painkillers on time. How you holding up? Hope your keeping occupied. 

    Likewise message anytime.

  • 1 week wait over. Feeling very very low today though :sad: No energy to do anything. Had a little cry earlier. Stupid I know.

    Kids half term holidays start today so I need to practice putting on my brave face for them. At least they will keep me busy over the next week. 

    Hope others are doing better than me.
